I'm very interested in BOTH bikes. What part of GA are you in? Can you give a deal for both? Also, I have about a 31" inseam. Do you think the 56 would be a close fit? Just let me know!

I am about an hour south east of Atlanta. If u can pick them up and you buy both I will take $50 off.

As far as fit. My inseam is 32, if that helps.

I'm not StanF but I do have the same inseam & ride that same size Specialized Transition. While inseam length is no sure fire bike fit indicator...you should be fine on that frame.

Good luck,

Thanks for the reply. I am 6' tall and my torso is a little long for my height. I have that whole Michael Phelps without the incredible swimming ability thing going on. Any help?

I am 5'8 and while the bike fit fine inseam wise, the top tube was a bit too long. I am not a fit expert but I think it would be fine.

We're built the same in height & proportion. I've not had any issues getting a good fit on the bike through a F.I.S.T. trained shop.

You may need to play with the stem length a bit but as far as the frame size goes you'll be fine.

Good luck,

I am intrested in both bikes, I currently ride a 56cm specialized allez road bike , do you think I would fit the 54 or 56 better, Im about 5'11". I currently reside in Missoula, MT but am willing to pay for the shipping. Let me know if this will work out.

Thanks, John Fitzgerald.

I am not a fit expert, but I am 5'8 and rode the 56, but the top tube was a bit long. I also have a 56 allez which fits well. If you cover the shipping I have no problem packing them up. Send me a PM if you want to work out payment options.
